01:14 AM EST, 12/10/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Klaveness Combination Carriers (KCC.OL) secured a 32-month contract with alumina refinery Alumina do Norte do Brasil for the use of its MV Barcarena carrier. The vessel will be used to transport caustic soda solution to the client's refinery in Brazil, according to a Tuesday release. The contract, which will begin in March 2026, allows the vessel to carry dry cargoes on the way should opportunities arise. The combination carrier operator said the deal was finalized on the back of the completion of the 25-year renewal docking of MV Barcarena in early December.
